Thanks Obama!!!
But this is balanced out by the $2500 we each save, right?
All according to his plan.......when the American people say ‘Unlce Sam’ he will institute Single Payer with ‘the stroke of a pen’. Will the Republicans FINALLY HAVE HAD ENOUGH???
And how much of that is taxes and other charges imposed by Obammycare?
They said that obamacare was supposed to SAVE money on healthcare!
Instead, premiums are rising, jobs and small businesses are destroyed, and the cost of healthcare STILL goes up!!!!
PHOOEY, PHOOEY, and PHOOEY again!!!!
Lots of this is for pain killer addicts and anti-depression meds.
A lot of it’s price inflation.
My dad’s last two weeks of life spent in a hospital (ICU included) in 1971 came to about $3000.
This last February I spent two HOURS in the local ER and it came to $7000.
Well, that’s easy to solve—jack the estate tax to 80% and then 0bamacare everyone over 65. /Ezekiel Emanuel
Haven’t read the comments on this thread yet.
I’ve been on Medicare for 9 years. I’ve paid an average of $1200 a year for the premium. I’ve spent an average of less than $100 a year on health care (mostly flu shots).
With over 300 million people in the US, I don’t believe that the health care costs are $10,000+ PER PERSON on average.
This sounds like the government trying to gouge more funding from Congress for the health care scam.
